Two persons were allegedly killed by their brothers in two separate incidents over petty disputes in the national capital, police said today.
In the first incident, a 30-year-old autorickshaw driver Sukhwinder--a resident of Anand Parbat in central Delhi, was hit with an iron rod by his elder brother Dharam Singh, 35, last night.
Sukhwinder was admitted to a hospital where he succumbed to his injury this afternoon, police said.
Both the brothers worked as autorickshaw drivers.
Dharam used to live in Burari and last night he visited his younger brother. They had some dispute during which the accused hit the victim with an iron rod, a senior police officer said, adding Dharam has been arrested.
He alleged that Sukhwinder had grabbed his property as a result of which he was depressed, said the officer.
In another incident, 20-year-old Jane Alam was stabbed multiple times by his elder brother over a petty dispute in Nand Nagri area of east Delhi on Wednesday night.
Jane succumbed due to excessive bleeding while undergoing treatment at GTB hospital last evening.
The victim and his elder brother Shah Alam, 20, had a fight over some issue while they were at their home in Sundar Nagari on July 13, police said.
When their father Mehrajuddin admonished them, they went out of their house and later family members were alarmed by the shrieks and cries of help by the younger sibling, they said.
Family members found Jane swathed in blood and rushed him to hospital. He was stabbed seven times allegedly by Shah who escaped after the incident, said a senior officer.
The stab wounds, confined mostly to the arms and legs of Jane, led to excessive bleeding and he died undergoing treatment at GTB hospital, said the officer.
A case was registered against Shah and now the charge of murder has also been added. He is absconding and efforts are being made to arrest him at the earliest, he added.
